  • AGM MG42 Upgrade Project - Advice please

    Hi, I recently acquired an AGM MG42, and after a few skirmishes, have decided I love it . I'm planning on changing quite a lot of the internals, as many of the stock parts are of questionable quality. I've put together a preliminary list of parts I'm thinking of buying, if anyone has any experience with either the gun or the parts I plan to buy, it would be greatly appreciated.

    Internals

    Mosfet : Homemade Mosfet (as planning an 11.1v)
    Battery : 11.1v Lipo, wired to deans
    Motor : SHS HT motor
    Gears : Either SHS 12:1 or Nuprol 13:1
    Cylinder Head : ASG Ultimate V3
    Piston : SHS Nylon Blue
    Spring : Waiting until everything is in place then a new spring to manage fps
    Barrel / Hop

    Barrel : 6.03mm Madbull, length 509mm, (anyone know of any mid-priced 6.05mm?)
    Hop : Any advice appreciated, looking for a flat hop of some kind.

    Drum Mag

    Battery : Replacing the stock 4xAA with an 11.1v Lipo
    Mosfet : Again, DIY because of new battery
    Motor : Leave as stock for now, wait to see if it blows up.

    Other Stuff

    I'm planning to run the mag off of an 11.1v if the motor will take it, and to match the feed rate with the upgraded gun's using resistors in series to the wiring inside the drum.
    Lots of Electrical and aluminium tape to sort out the wobbles.

    As I mentioned, any advice would be appreciated, either on something not working, better or more appropriate parts available etc.

    Many thanks,

    James
